When the oil temperature is 50% hot, grab a handful of stuffing in your palm, pat it into a thin and even cake, put it in the pot, sprinkle a little black sesame seeds, then cover the pot and bake for 3 minutes.
After seeing the color change around the cake, we poured a layer of vegetable oil on it. Then we turned the cake upside down and the bottom of the cake was baked golden yellow.
